Not what I would call visible,it's behind the F16/F35 which themselves are not fully visible,you can see bits of each frame but not all of it
Same for AH64 behind the ch47,no idea. Where the H60s are parked

I would seriously suggest you were looking in the wrong place .From my view i could see the nose all the fuselage and the tail planes , i am not sure how much more you need to see to count but from my perspective over 80% is more than enough .

Farnborough is looking quite good by all accounts

The marquee etc do make things tricky

It does not help matters when some one igoes and parks a A350-900 in the way .that obscures half the static
Key viewing places
The stone wall across from Costco Templar road
Trenchant way from behind the Swan pub ,and further along to the Dairy gate , nothing beyond dairy gate
Eelmoor bridge nothing Mil just thousands of Biz jets, :grr:
Fairford Tomorrow
